I’ve only ever seen a photo of one, once. Think it was the President of General Motor’s shotgun or something. I’m a sucker for old Auto-5’s and... I’d say this might be the prettiest shotgun I’ve ever seen in my life. Grade IV gold engraved Auto-5. https://www.gunsinternational.com/g...ith-an-extra-barrel.cfm?gun_id=101535492

It looks like a Mexican shotgun!
Well we're Green and we're Gold, and we play better when it's cold. All us Cheese heads have our favorite superstar. We love Brett Favre.

It’s garish. Like a big blonde with a gold tooth.

I love how someone buggered the set screws on both sides of the receiver by using a normal screwdriver on them.
There is no way to coexist no matter how many bumper stickers there are on Subaru bumpers!

Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.

Oh, but you're forgetting the addition of a 'slip-on' recoil pad... Shame...

Most beautiful semi auto shotgun in the world just came up on the market
Fixed it for you. That's nice but I've seen a lot better classic doubles.

A lowly Model 59 Winchester beats an A5 like a rented mule....But it sure isn't pretty....even if you do put lipstick on it......

I like the Belgian Auto Five. I appreciate it's history, build quality, toughness and reliability. I shoot them very well and I like the classic blued and walnut with tasteful scroll work. Slap gold on any gun and it's an instant turn off to me.

Nope. It has one too few barrels to be the most beautiful shotgun
